  • Manage the relationship between the customer and KERNO’s localized UAE Technical Support Center.
  • Coordinate the dispatch of field engineers and the "Spares Management" logic—ensuring critical components (GPUs, drives, power supplies) are available locally in Dubai for immediate replacement.
  • Utilize KERNO’s Customer Training Center to proactively educate client admins on basic maintenance and hardware diagnostics.


  • Monitor the "health score" of key accounts, tracking recurring issues or aging hardware that may require a refresh or upgrade.
  • Work closely with the Sales team to manage contract renewals and upsells to higher support tiers.
  • Act as the "Voice of the Customer" back to the R&D and Manufacturing teams in DSO to influence the next generation of KERNO servers.


  • Ensure all service activities comply with KERNO’s Zero-Trust hardware security protocols.
  • Manage the rollout of critical security patches and firmware updates across the client’s infrastructure without compromising their operational uptime.

  • Extensive experience managing Mission-Critical Support for enterprise hardware.
  • Deep familiarity with the UAE enterprise landscape, particularly public sector and high-security requirements.

Technical Competencies:

  • ITIL Expert or Master level certification is highly preferred.
  • Strong technical background in Server/Storage maintenance, Linux environments, and hardware diagnostics.
  • Understanding of SLA/OLA structures within a manufacturing-to-service context.



Soft Skills:
